[QUOTE="roadkill, post: 972156, member: 1555"] I doubt this will settle the argument, but there is room for some middle ground here and I believe both these things are true: 1. As [USER=3849]@leatherneckjacket[/USER] stated, Maryland is much better than BG by most rating systems if you focus on those with the most meaningful data at this point in the season. 2. The gap between them is not that significant if you look strictly at who they beat or lost to. The first 3 rating systems have more complex (and less transparent) methodologies and are generally viewed as good yardsticks throughout the season. The last two are based strictly on wins and losses with SoS computed accordingly. The latter systems make no sense at the beginning of the season but usually converge on an accurate alignment with the final polls. I included UVA and GT for reference.
